Two hundred and thirty-three years ago some of the greatest men of the previous millennium all sat down together, and wrote down the ideals that they so very believed.

They wrote down the message of freedom and democracy that so many had carried in their hearts, for so long. On this day, 233 years ago, humanity witnessed the birth of a new age. A golden age where the individual was finally valued. A day when all men had an equal say, and a fair chance at success.

While the journey has been turbulent at best, and these ideals have been stressed and tried, in the end we have prevailed. We have witnessed those who would attempt to tear down the wall of freedom and the ideals of our forefathers. We have seen many evils that would undo all that we have created, yet we, the free, have prevailed.

And so, today, of all days, we stand in unison, to realize and to pay homage to the ideals of freedom.

Today, we stand together. Today, all members of the free world should stand in unified glory, as the world rises to salute the memory of the architects of freedom.

Plato, Washington, Adams, all great men, who believed in the potential of humanity. Who remained steadfast, in the belief that not only, are inherently free, be we are, at the very core, human.

And as such, we are all deserving, of the same basic rights, that encompass the ideals of the freedom to speak, assemble, and worship.

Today, we salute the memory of all Patriots of freedom, of all those who have fought, in one way or another, for the freedom of mankind.

Today, we honor freedom, and all of its incumbents.

This victory, this victory is for not only those who call themselves Americans, but for all members of the free world. Today we recognize the undeniable truth that all people are granted innate rights that reside in the core of the mentality of humanity.

Today, on the anniversary of democracy, we celebrate these undeniable rights and in the name of all free people on this Earth.

tldr: Happy Fourth of July

We are a Democratic Republic, we have elected officials, but the people still are able to vote on matters that affect their community.

As such, yes, yes we do practice democracy.

I like Fourth of July simply because all you do is watch stupid 5 year olds blow their hands off and such.

The only thing good about it is the after Fourth of July sex.
